The bluebird of happiness
Occasionally, I see a bluebird or two at the bird bath, early in the day. Here is evidence! Not too bad a pic, considering it was taken using the zoom, through a window, when it was still mostly dark out.
Today I also saw a LBB (Little Brown Bird - at a distance they all look alike) land on top of a foxtail, bending the seed head down to the ground, where presumably some seeds shook loose. The bird would then release the stalk, peck around in the snow a bit, and repeat the performance. Now I don't feel so bad about (some of) the weeds in my yard.
Some kind of crap (freezing rain? sleet? what is the difference?) was falling from the sky, but now it has turned to snow. A good reason to stay put today.
